Two actors, two faces and a two sided story. I smell an Oscar nod for Gosling…I see audience rejection of the film.
It’s October. A time when Ghoulies, Ghosties and Long-Legged Beasties roam the earth. But if you start seeing the ghost of a World War II Japanese kamikaze fighter pilot, you’re probably Enoch Brae, the central character of Restless. And that’s not a bad place to be. Enoch is an odd kid. If your name is Enoch [...]
“Rock ‘em Sock ‘em Robots” get their day on the big screen in Real Steel, a movie that transcends the one-joke premise and is instead a heartwarming, fist-pumping mechanized fairy tale of a father and son coming together amid some of the baddest technology you’ll ever wish was really available. Not to bad for a [...]
Spawn creator, Todd McFarlane, wants Leonardo DiCaprio to chase Spawn in his relaunch of the big-screen Spawn brand. McFarlane, who is one of the most popular comic artists in the history of the medium, spoke to MTV about the possibility of having the Academy Award-nominated actor in his film. “The main character isn’t Spawn, per [...]
Since human cloning is banned in the United States, Disney will have to prioritize their Johnny Depp projects. Going the route of the the highly succesful, sickeningly profitable and treasured story, Disney looks to be moving forward with the fourth chapter in the Pirates of the Caribbean saga past The Lone Ranger. HitFlix hit up [...]
It just works. Here’s the first look at Kristen Stewart as the rock machine, Joan Jett, in the upcoming The Runaways written and directed by Floria Sigismondi. She looks rather melancholy, right? Ms. Stewart’s post-Twilight career has lit up since her starring role as every tweens favorite love-lorn, angst-riddled teen, Bella. Then becoming a love-lorn, [...]
I’ve seen a great number of films, and experienced a great deal of villainy. One of the recent villainous greats was Heath Ledger’s interpretation of The Joker in The Dark Knight. Ledger’s version of The Joker gave the character a whole new shade. His take was a whole new voice compared what we’d seen in [...]
If one were to never hear of Sam Mendes’ prior to seeing Away We Go, they would assume it was his first film. In some respects it is as it’s tonally different than what he’s accomplished in the past with Road to Perdition, Jarhead and the overrated American Beauty. Where Mendes’ usually invigorates a dark [...]
Even though it would not be orthodox for something big name to go ‘green’, this is not the kind of green were normally talking about. This particular green is Disney’s latest creation, The Odd Life of Timothy Green. Spawning from an idea from actor and producer Ahmet Zappa, Disney nabbed themselves someone to take part [...]
PHILIP BARRETT: Give Tony Scott credit, he’s improved over his career. He went from being his generation’s Michael Bay (see: Top Gun, Days of Thunder) to developing his own style and being a legitimately good filmmaker (see: Man on Fire, Enemy of the State.) One could say he learned a thing or two from brother [...]
There was a time when an Eddie Murphy film would be released and it was guaranteed gold. His stint on “Saturday Night Live” is one for the ages, and who can deny the hilarity of Coming to America and Trading Places? Somewhere around Beverly Hills Cop III he took a turn for the worse only [...]
